In this second half of a two-part special, Dee and Jason of Surely You Can't Be Serious dive deep into two iconic '80s comedies: Weird Science and Real Genius. Picking up where they left off, they focus on the cast and standout performances in Real Genius, breaking down the witty, quirky characters that helped make this film a cult classic. Along the way, they share fun behind-the-scenes tidbits from both movies, comparing the charm, the science, and the sheer ridiculousness of each.

Will Val Kilmer’s charismatic Chris Knight edge out the chaos of Weird Science? Or will the teen ingenuity of Gary and Wyatt take the crown? Dee and Jason wrap up their discussion by delivering their final verdict—which movie reigns supreme in the great 1985 comedy showdown. Tune in for the laughs, the nostalgia, and some good ol’ fashioned debate as they decide which film deserves the title of 'best of 1985.'
